Interview with LAUSD’s Judy Chiasson About AB1266 (Part 2)
On Monday, January 13, I interviewed Judy Chiasson of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) for a bit under an hour, and this post is the second segment posted of this interview. You may remember that Chiasson was the LAUSD representative who gave testimony before the California Senate Education Committee in June of 2013. This segment of the interview for the most part was about AB1266 and what the Los Angeles Unified School District policy regarding transgender students. This second posted part of the interview is about privacy in locker rooms and bathrooms at L.A. Unified. We who’ve been out of school in California for more than a decade will find our memories of school locker rooms, bathrooms and privacy in general are no longer accurate depictions of how locker rooms and bathrooms operate today not only in L.A. Unified, but in most California schools. Here’s the second segment
